Tourism is far too focused on people 'going to places' rather than 'experiencing places.' I am delighted that I found this article, I added a travel and toursim blog to my site. As an Expat, I encourage fellow expats to provide travel guides and images of where they live/visit. My hope is that the potentail traveller sees and feels the place they visit rather than just going to 'buy the t-shirt' to add my opinion on definition. A tourist is a traveller, a migrant is someone looking for a home in a new place. In my experience (by my definition) tourist often become migrants when the oppertunity for work is available.
